of topics allow an instant comfort level to his professional approach.

Not only a counselor, but more a teacher and coach, cheering me
on to be me. I can say anything and not feel condemned or afraid.

Dr. Duiven doesn't preach or tell you what to do (I've had counselors
do that.) He aids in your self discovery as to what you need. His
intuition is right on. I always learn from his wisdom. He understands
me enough to know what I need to work on. |
